Dog won't let owner stop petting it

An amusing video has emerged from China of a chihuahua pushing its owner's hand back onto its belly when they stop petting it. This little pooch seems to be getting the royal treatment, what with his owner bowing to it's every whim.

The footage, filmed in Chengdu, Sichuan Province on May 5, shows the dog enjoying belly rubs with its eyes closed. The pooch looks pretty confident and knows exactly how far to reach and where to bring the hand. That is just hilariously adorable!

As soon as its owners stops petting it, the dog makes them understand it wants more.

Fun loving and busy, Chihuahuas like nothing better than to be close to their people. It's not unusual for Chihuahuas to form a close bond with a single person, and they can become very demanding if they're overindulged.

The Chihuahua's history is puzzling and there are many theories surrounding the origin of the breed. Both folklore and archaeological finds show that the breed originated in Mexico. The most common and most likely theory is that Chihuahuas are descended from the Techichi, a companion dog favored by the Toltec civilization in Mexico. It is probable that earlier ancestors were present prior to the Mayans as dogs approximating the Chihuahua are found in materials from the Great Pyramid of Cholula, predating 1530 and in the ruins of Chichen Itza on the Yucatán Peninsula.
